When I was twelve, my dad took me to the Silver Creek, a river that flowed like glass behind our village.
“This river has fed our family for three generations,” he said, pointing to the fish swimming beneath the water. I
remember dipping my toes in, feeling the cold water pull at my ankles while dragonflies flew over the surface.
But last summer, when I came back from college, I was shocked. The once-beautiful river was now full of
plastic bags and chemical foam(泡沫). Dead fish floated on the surface, and the smell of rot was everywhere. My
dad’s stories echoed in my ears like a joke. That night, I couldn’t sleep.
By morning, I had a plan. I made posters and got my classmates together — Lily, who loved biology; Tom,
the rugby team captain; and even shy Mei from the art club. We met at the riverbank the next Saturday, with
gloves and determination. Old Mr. Li, who still fished in the dirty water, laughed and said, “Fools! You can’t fix
what’s already dead.”
The work was tough. We had to remove tires, broken TVs, and a rusty bicycle buried in the mud. One rainy
afternoon, as I tried to pull a broken fridge out of the mud, my foot slipped on some algae. I fell into the rocks and
cut my hand. Lily was shocked, but before she could say anything, old Mr. Li came over with bandages and some
ginger tea. “Stubborn kid,” he said, but his eyes were kind. “You’ve made me recall this river was once our life.”

By winter, something amazing happened. Kingfishers came back, flying through the air with their bright
blue wings. Kids started skipping stones again, and their laughter filled the air. At our last gathering, Tom held up
a photo from our first cleanup: a big pile of trash bags. “Look how far we’ve come,” he said. But the real win
wasn’t just a clean river — it was the village finding its heart again, one bottle at a time.
24．Why did the author start the cleanup campaign

C．To earn recognition from classmates. D．To fulfill his father’s childhood wish.
25．What major challenge did the cleanup team face during their work

C．Resistance from local fishermen. D．Removing large buried objects.
26．What caused Mr. Li to change his attitude

C．The author’s accident and persistence. D．The improvement of the river’s condition.
27．Which is the best title for the text
A．Small Acts, Big Changes. B．Dirty River, Lost Hopes.
C．The Fisherman’s Warning. D．A Student’s Summer Story.

Beauty and the Beast is practically “a tale as old as time.” So are a few other folktales (民间故事), new
research shows. “These stories are far older than the first literary evidence for them,” says anthropologist Jamie
Tehrani. When linguists study a language’s evolution, they trace grammatical and phonetical (语音的) structure
through time. “What we were interested in doing is seeing if you could do that for other elements of culture,”
Tehrani says.
Tehrani’s research group studied 275 magic-based stories from a database of more than 2,000 types of
folktales. Magic stories include beings or objects with supernatural powers and are the largest folktale group.
Statistical analyses of the relationship between the folktales and language, as well as between the folktales and
how they may have been shared by neighboring peoples, left the team with 76 stories that they thought were
strong candidates for accurately estimating folktale age.
“These methods allow us to trace much further back than the physical evidence would allow us to do,” says
Tehrani, who has also studied the origins of Little Red Riding Hood. Four tales had a high probability of being
试卷第 1 页，共 3 页
associated with the structure of the Proto-Indo-European language — an ancient common language that dates to
around 6,000 years ago. However, The Smith and the Devil is the only one they feel absolutely confident as being
a Proto-Indo-European tale. Since the tale is associated with Proto-Indo-European language and includes a
character who typically works with metal, the researchers park its origins around 6,000 years ago, in the Bronze
Age. The team also found that early versions of Rumpelstiltskin and Beauty and the Beast first appear with the
emergence of modern Indo-European language subfamilies. The language-story pairings suggest that the tales
originated between 3,000 and 4,000 years ago.
Tehrani says the researchers treated the stories like genetic information, passed from generation to
generation. “We don’t invent culture anew every generation,” Tehrani says. “Instead, we inherit a lot of our
culture.”
28．What did the new research want to find
A．The spreading ways of folktales. B．The structure of languages.
C．The origin time of folktales. D．The evolution of languages.
29．How did Tehrani’s group estimate the age of the folktales
A．By analyzing story-language statistical links.
B．By tracing grammar development of languages.
C．By examine folktale-magic relationships.
D．By studying genetic changes of ancient people.
30．Which folktale is believed to be the oldest according to the research
A．Beauty and the Beast. B．Little Red Riding Hood.
C．The Smith and the Devil. D．Rumpelstiltskin.
31．What is close in meaning with the underlined word “inherit” in the last paragraph
A．Create. B．Receive. C．Forget. D．Change.
D
Recent research on insects trapped in amber has revealed surprising information about male mosquitoes. It
has long been known that female mosquitoes are the ones that bite humans and animals to feed on blood. However,
the discovery of ancient mosquitoes in amber suggests that male mosquitoes may have also fed on blood in the
past.
Amber is formed when tree resin (树脂) hardens and preserves small animals or plants that get stuck in it.
试卷第 1 页，共 3 页
Dr. Azar, a paleontologist (古生物学家) at the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, studies amber
with the aim of understanding how flowering plants and pollinator (传粉昆虫) insects have evolved together.
However, while polishing one of the amber specimens to a thin slice that could be examined under a microscope,
he was taken back. He found that two of the specimens were the oldest known fossils from the mosquito family,
for their sharp, elongated mouth parts with tiny toothlike bristles (鬃毛).
Further examination of the insects yielded another surprise. These two mosquitoes also had pincerlike
organs called claspers, which are used to hold onto females during mating. This finding challenges the belief that
only female mosquitoes have mouth parts designed for bloodsucking. Dr. Azar believes that these ancient male
mosquitoes may have fed on blood but eventually lost this ability during the evolution of the species when
flowering plants appeared.
However, some experts remain skeptical about his assumption. Dale Greenwalt, also a paleontologist at the
Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, finds the idea interesting but controversial. He suggests that
further research is needed to confirm if these insects were indeed mosquitoes and if their mouth parts were used
for bloodsucking or other.
Despite the ongoing debate, Dr. Greenwalt acknowledges the importance of bold claims like Dr. Azar’s in
pushing scientific research forward. He believes that even if some scientists are conservative, those who are not
can eventually correct any errors. Only time and further investigation will reveal the truth about these ancient
male mosquitoes and their feeding habits.
32．According to the passage, what is the main purpose of Dr. Azar’s research on amber specimens
A．To study the evolution of flowering plants.
B．To identify different species of mosquitoes.
C．To understand the relationship between plants and pollinator insects.
D．To examine the preservation process of insects in amber.
33．What does the underlined phrase “taken back” mean in Paragraph 2
A．Being removed. B．Being astonished.
C．Being reminded of something. D．Being brought to someplace.
34．What does the presence of claspers of the examined ancient mosquitoes imply
A．They belong to the oldest mosquitoes. B．They prove that the mosquitoes are males.
C．They help insects sip nectar from flowers. D．They show that mosquitoes prefer plants.
35．What is Dr. Greenwalt’s attitude towards the hypothesis proposed by Dr. Azar
试卷第 1 页，共 3 页
A．He fully supports Dr. Azar’s findings and believes they are accurate.
B．He thinks it is too risky and lacks sufficient evidence.
C．He agrees to it but believes more research is needed.
D．He is uncertain and suggests waiting for other scientists’ opinions.

There are so many definitions of wisdom. Simply put, wisdom is a mix of insight, commonsense,
experience, and results to sound judgement. It is not merely a desirable quality but an absolute necessity in a
world filled with chaos, controversy, and conflicts. 36 . It shines our way through darkness.
Growing up with fairy tales and fantasy movies, I always associated wisdom with Gandalf, Yoda, and
Albus Dumbledore. Although these characters have given every one of us tons of inspiration, wisdom actually lies
within ourselves. 37 And how
Embarking on new experiences is an avenue for acquiring wisdom. You will never grow from being in your
comfort zone, which is why you need to get out of it. Do change your routine and experience as much as what life
takes you! In fact, there are always several sides to a life story. To identify the truth, you need to be receptive to
different views. 38 . It is not emotion-based either. Train your mind to be a judgment-free space for ideas.
Open-mindedness opens new pathways to profound insights.
What if you are desperate for personal growth and improvement 39 The more time you spend with
them, the more transfer of knowledge there will be. Your tutors can be whoever is wiser than you. Yet prior to that,
engage in dialogue with them to find out why.
Rome was not built in a day. 40 . Instead it takes a span of your life and continuous effort to mature
in wisdom as you navigate life’s challenges.
A．Individuals need to bring it out.
B．It isn’t something you are born with.
C．Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens.
D．Developing wisdom is not a destination.
E．A shortcut to do that is to have wise people as your tutors.
F．Never base your perspective on the most popular opinions.
G．In order to navigate in the world, wisdom becomes our guiding light.

At first I wondered how I’d 48 such a tyrant (暴君). Then I remembered how often I threw the

The 51 of our role revealed another side to my elder boy, giving me hope for his future

we made it finally.

One day, a good friend gave me a gift. It was a book filled with interesting and uplifting stories. I
remember I began reading it that very night. And I would read a story or two before going to bed each night.
One evening I read a story about hugging called “It Can’t Happen Here ” The opening quotation by
Virginia Satir said we need four hugs a day for survival, eight for maintenance (保持) and twelve hugs a day to
grow.
I read this story on a Tuesday. I knew it was Tuesday because on Wednesday I walked into my classroom
and declared that every Wednesday would be known as “Hugging Day.”I told my students everyone needs hugs to
live and grow.
I was already a hugger and had always greeted my students with a warm hug each morning. But after
reading the story in this new book, I decided that on Hugging Day everyone needed to make sure they got at least
twelve hugs. I wanted my students to grow. All hugs didn’t have to come from me, but I was ready, willing, and
able to give as many as needed.
My students lined up at my desk with questions and left with a hug. They hugged me before and after lunch.
They hugged me when they came to school in the morning and when they left for home in the afternoon. And
试卷第 1 页，共 3 页
perhaps best of all, the children in my classroom hugged each other.
Every Wednesday, my students counted their hugs to make sure they were getting their fair share. I
continued the practice for several years. Through the years, I hugged all kinds of kids — those who were untidy
and those who were clean, children who were gifted academically and others whose gifts lay elsewhere. Among
them, Nicole, one of my students, stood out for her enthusiasm about Hugging Day. She was a shy girl who rarely
spoke up in class, but on Hugging Day, she would always be the first to line up to hug me. I could see how much a
hug meant to her.

W: Not so well, I’m afraid.
M: Didn’t you get your license
W: No, my score was only 60%.
M: No wonder you look sad. Where did you lose the most points
W: One thing was not turning my head before changing roads or making turns.

【原文】W: Martin, you’ve played many superheroes in the films. What is the hardest part of playing a superhero
M: Well, you have to be fit to play the role, but getting your body in shape isn’t the hardest part. It’s getting the
hang of all that leaping, falling, turning and rolling that’s actually the trickiest.
W: So how did you get into acting
M: I’d never considered it. I majored in literature at university but was never involved in any drama clubs. After
graduating, I was employed by a comedy producer and it just went from there.
W: You grew up in Canada. How was that
M: Great. For my brothers it was more about sports at weekends. I was the only one of my brothers that was
interested in the cinema but I wasn’t the sort of fan with posters all over the wall.
W: What would you have done if you hadn’t become an actor
M: My dad is a police officer, my mother and all my grandparents are doctors. Even so, neither of those jobs
appeals to me. My older brother has an import-export company and I guess I would have a job with him.
W: Thank you, Martin.

【原文】
Hello everyone. Welcome! I’ve only started this channel this week. So I’m sort of nervous in front of the
camera. Anyway, I want to share with you everything I know about health. Today I want to talk to you about how
to feel younger. I am in my mid fortieth, yet I feel as energetic as I did when I was eighteen. So what is my secret
It’s not really a secret. It’s a combination of exercise, healthy eating and rest. Sleep is the most important aspect of
all of this. I imagine many of you get around six hours of sleep a night. You might stay up late watching TV,
playing video games or just browsing your phone. What I’d suggest is setting an alarm an hour before you go to
bed. That alarm is to remind you to stop looking at electronic screens. They produce blue light which can prevent
you from going to sleep. I would also suggest not eating or drinking anything two hours before bedtime. If you are
restless, a glass of milk can help to settle you, but no tea or coffee as they will keep you awake. Lastly, start your
day on a positive note with half an hour of exercise. It may not seem like a lot but over time it will dramatically
improve your health. Now, if you have any questions, just type them on the screen.

When I was twelve, my dad took me to the Silver Creek, a river that flowed like glass behind our village.
“This river has fed our family for three generations,” he said, pointing to the fish swimming beneath the water. I
remember dipping my toes in, feeling the cold water pull at my ankles while dragonflies flew over the surface.
But last summer, when I came back from college, I was shocked. The once-beautiful river was now full of
plastic bags and chemical foam(泡沫). Dead fish floated on the surface, and the smell of rot was everywhere. My
dad’s stories echoed in my ears like a joke. That night, I couldn’t sleep.
By morning, I had a plan. I made posters and got my classmates together — Lily, who loved biology; Tom,
the rugby team captain; and even shy Mei from the art club. We met at the riverbank the next Saturday, with
gloves and determination. Old Mr. Li, who still fished in the dirty water, laughed and said, “Fools! You can’t fix
what’s already dead.”
The work was tough. We had to remove tires, broken TVs, and a rusty bicycle buried in the mud. One rainy
afternoon, as I tried to pull a broken fridge out of the mud, my foot slipped on some algae. I fell into the rocks and
cut my hand. Lily was shocked, but before she could say anything, old Mr. Li came over with bandages and some
ginger tea. “Stubborn kid,” he said, but his eyes were kind. “You’ve made me recall this river was once our life.”
By winter, something amazing happened. Kingfishers came back, flying through the air with their bright
blue wings. Kids started skipping stones again, and their laughter filled the air. At our last gathering, Tom held up
a photo from our first cleanup: a big pile of trash bags. “Look how far we’ve come,” he said. But the real win
wasn’t just a clean river — it was the village finding its heart again, one bottle at a time.
24．Why did the author start the cleanup campaign
A．To restore the polluted river. B．To study environmental science.
C．To earn recognition from classmates. D．To fulfill his father’s childhood wish.
25．What major challenge did the cleanup team face during their work
A．Government interference. B．Conflicts among volunteers.
C．Resistance from local fishermen. D．Removing large buried objects.
26．What caused Mr. Li to change his attitude
A．Pressure from other villagers. B．The author’s academic background.
C．The author’s accident and persistence. D．The improvement of the river’s condition.
27．Which is the best title for the text
A．Small Acts, Big Changes. B．Dirty River, Lost Hopes.
C．The Fisherman’s Warning. D．A Student’s Summer Story.
【答案】24．A 25．D 26．C 27．A
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者在十二岁时与父亲在 Silver Creek 的美好回忆，但当他大学暑
假回家时，发现这条曾经美丽的河流已经被严重污染，于是作者发起了一场清理河流的行动，最终让河流
恢复了生机，也让村庄找回了它的灵魂。
24．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“But last summer, when I came back from college, I was shocked. The
once-beautiful river was now full of plastic bags and chemical foam. Dead fish floated on the surface, and the
smell of rot was everywhere.(但去年夏天，当我从大学回来时，我震惊了。这条曾经美丽的河流现在充满了
塑料袋和化学泡沫。死鱼漂浮在水面上，到处都是腐烂的气味)”和第三段“By morning, I had a plan. I made
posters and got my classmates together.(到了早上，我有一个计划。我做了海报，并召集了我的同学)”可知，
作者在看到河流被严重污染后，决定发起一场清理河流的运动，目的是为了恢复被污染的河流。故选 A。
25．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The work was tough. We had to remove tires, broken TVs, and a rusty bicycle
buried in the mud.(这项工作很艰难。我们必须移除埋在泥里的轮胎、破碎的电视机和生锈的自行车)”可知，
清理团队在工作中面临的主要挑战是移除埋在地下的大型物体。故选 D。
26．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“One rainy afternoon, as I tried to pull a broken fridge out of the mud, my foot
slipped on some algae. I fell into the rocks and cut my hand. Lily was shocked, but before she could say anything,
old Mr. Li came over with bandages and some ginger tea. “Stubborn kid,” he said, but his eyes were kind. “You’
ve made me recall this river was once our life”.(一个下雨的下午，当我试图把一台破冰箱从泥里拉出来时，我
的脚在藻类上滑倒了。我摔倒在岩石上，割伤了手。莉莉很震惊，但她还没来得及说什么，老李先生就带
着绷带和一些姜茶过来了。“固执的孩子，”他说，但他的眼神很和善。“你让我想起了这条河曾经是我们的生
命。”)”可知，作者的事故和坚持让李先生改变了他的态度。故选 C。
27．主旨大意题。文章讲述了作者在看到河流被严重污染后，决定发起一场清理河流的运动，最终让河流
恢复了生机，也让村庄找回了它的灵魂。这个故事强调了小行动可以带来大改变的主题。所以选项 A“小
行动，大改变”作为标题最合适。故选 A。
C
Beauty and the Beast is practically “a tale as old as time.” So are a few other folktales (民间故事), new
research shows. “These stories are far older than the first literary evidence for them,” says anthropologist Jamie
Tehrani. When linguists study a language’s evolution, they trace grammatical and phonetical (语音的) structure
through time. “What we were interested in doing is seeing if you could do that for other elements of culture,”
Tehrani says.
Tehrani’s research group studied 275 magic-based stories from a database of more than 2,000 types of
folktales. Magic stories include beings or objects with supernatural powers and are the largest folktale group.
Statistical analyses of the relationship between the folktales and language, as well as between the folktales and
how they may have been shared by neighboring peoples, left the team with 76 stories that they thought were
strong candidates for accurately estimating folktale age.
“These methods allow us to trace much further back than the physical evidence would allow us to do,” says
Tehrani, who has also studied the origins of Little Red Riding Hood. Four tales had a high probability of being
associated with the structure of the Proto-Indo-European language — an ancient common language that dates to
around 6,000 years ago. However, The Smith and the Devil is the only one they feel absolutely confident as being
a Proto-Indo-European tale. Since the tale is associated with Proto-Indo-European language and includes a
character who typically works with metal, the researchers park its origins around 6,000 years ago, in the Bronze
Age. The team also found that early versions of Rumpelstiltskin and Beauty and the Beast first appear with the
emergence of modern Indo-European language subfamilies. The language-story pairings suggest that the tales
originated between 3,000 and 4,000 years ago.
Tehrani says the researchers treated the stories like genetic information, passed from generation to
generation. “We don’t invent culture anew every generation,” Tehrani says. “Instead, we inherit a lot of our
culture.”
28．What did the new research want to find
A．The spreading ways of folktales. B．The structure of languages.
C．The origin time of folktales. D．The evolution of languages.
29．How did Tehrani’s group estimate the age of the folktales
A．By analyzing story-language statistical links.
B．By tracing grammar development of languages.
C．By examine folktale-magic relationships.
D．By studying genetic changes of ancient people.
30．Which folktale is believed to be the oldest according to the research
A．Beauty and the Beast. B．Little Red Riding Hood.
C．The Smith and the Devil. D．Rumpelstiltskin.
31．What is close in meaning with the underlined word “inherit” in the last paragraph
A．Create. B．Receive. C．Forget. D．Change.
【答案】28．C 29．A 30．C 31．B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了研究人员将民间故事和语言结合分析来推测民间故事的发生时间。
28．推理判断题。根据第一段“Beauty and the Beast is practically “a tale as old as time.” So are a few other
folktales (民间故事), new research shows. “These stories are far older than the first literary evidence for them,”
says anthropologist Jamie Tehrani. When linguists study a language’s evolution, they trace grammatical and
phonetical (语音的) structure through time. “What we were interested in doing is seeing if you could do that for
other elements of culture,” Tehrani says.(新的研究表明，《美女与野兽》实际上是“一个与时间一样古老的故
事”。其他一些民间故事也是如此。人类学家 Jamie Tehrani 说：“这些故事比它们的第一批文学证据要古老
得多。”当语言学家研究语言的演变时，他们会追踪贯穿时间的语法和语音结构。Tehrani 说：“我们有兴趣做
的是，看看你是否可以为文化的其他元素这么做”。)”和第二段中的“Statistical analyses of the relationship
between the folktales and language, as well as between the folktales and how they may have been shared by
neighboring peoples, left the team with 76 stories that they thought were strong candidates for accurately
estimating folktale age.(对民间故事和语言之间的关系，以及民间故事之间的关系以及它们如何被邻国人民
分享的统计分析，让团队有 76 个故事，他们认为这些故事是准确估计民间故事年龄的有力候选者。)”可知，
第一段指出新研究发现民间故事的起源早于文学证据，并讲述想要探索民间故事是否像语言一样可以通过
时间追溯，第二段指出研究人员筛选出了 76 个可以用来准确估计民间故事年龄的故事，由此可推测出，
研究目标是确定民间故事的起源时间。故选 C。
29．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Statistical analyses of the relationship between the folktales and language, as
well as between the folktales and how they may have been shared by neighboring peoples, left the team with 76
stories that they thought were strong candidates for accurately estimating folktale age.(对民间故事和语言之间的
关系，以及民间故事之间的关系和它们如何被邻国人民分享的统计分析，让团队有 76 个故事，他们认为
这些故事是准确估计民间故事年龄的有力候选者。)”和第三段中的“The language-story pairings suggest that
the tales originated between 3,000 and 4,000 years ago.(语言-故事配对表明，这些故事起源于 3000 年至 4000
年前。)”可知，研究团队通过分析民间故事与语言之间的统计关系、民间故事之间的关系以及故事传播方
式，筛选出可能准确反映年龄的故事。故选 A。
30．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Four tales had a high probability of being associated with the structure of the
Proto-Indo-European language — an ancient common language that dates to around 6,000 years ago. However,
The Smith and the Devil is the only one they feel absolutely confident as being a Proto-Indo-European tale.(四个
故事很可能与原始印欧语的结构有关，这是一种可以追溯到大约 6000 年前的古老通用语言。然而，《铁匠
与魔鬼》是他们唯一一部绝对确认的原始印欧故事。)”和“The team also found that early versions of
Rumpelstiltskin and Beauty and the Beast first appear with the emergence of modern Indo-European language
subfamilies.(研究小组还发现，《侏儒怪》和《美女与野兽》的早期版本最初是随着现代印欧语系的出现而
出现的。)”可知，《铁匠与魔鬼》被确认为唯一明确属于原始印欧语（约 6000 年前）的故事，《侏儒怪》和
《美女与野兽》是随着现代印欧语系的出现而出现的，所以《铁匠与魔鬼》早于《侏儒怪》和《美女与野
兽》，《小红帽》的时间文中并未明确提出。由此可推测出，《铁匠与魔鬼》是研究中的最古老的故事。故
选 C。
31．词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Tehrani says the researchers treated the stories like genetic information, passed
from generation to generation.“We don’t invent culture anew every generation,” Tehrani says. “Instead, we inherit
a lot of our culture.”(Tehrani 说，研究人员将这些故事视为遗传信息，代代相传。“我们不会每一代人都重新
发明文化，”Tehrani 说。“相反，我们 inherit 很多我们的文化。”)”可知，这些故事代代相传，且我们并非每一
代都重新创造文化，由此可推测出，我们继承了许多文化，inherit 意为“继承”，与 receive(接受)意思相近。
故选 B。
D
Recent research on insects trapped in amber has revealed surprising information about male mosquitoes. It
has long been known that female mosquitoes are the ones that bite humans and animals to feed on blood. However,
the discovery of ancient mosquitoes in amber suggests that male mosquitoes may have also fed on blood in the
past.
Amber is formed when tree resin (树脂) hardens and preserves small animals or plants that get stuck in it.
Dr. Azar, a paleontologist (古生物学家) at the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, studies amber
with the aim of understanding how flowering plants and pollinator (传粉昆虫) insects have evolved together.
However, while polishing one of the amber specimens to a thin slice that could be examined under a microscope,
he was taken back. He found that two of the specimens were the oldest known fossils from the mosquito family,
for their sharp, elongated mouth parts with tiny toothlike bristles (鬃毛).
Further examination of the insects yielded another surprise. These two mosquitoes also had pincerlike
organs called claspers, which are used to hold onto females during mating. This finding challenges the belief that
only female mosquitoes have mouth parts designed for bloodsucking. Dr. Azar believes that these ancient male
mosquitoes may have fed on blood but eventually lost this ability during the evolution of the species when
flowering plants appeared.
However, some experts remain skeptical about his assumption. Dale Greenwalt, also a paleontologist at the
Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, finds the idea interesting but controversial. He suggests that
further research is needed to confirm if these insects were indeed mosquitoes and if their mouth parts were used
for bloodsucking or other.
Despite the ongoing debate, Dr. Greenwalt acknowledges the importance of bold claims like Dr. Azar’s in
pushing scientific research forward. He believes that even if some scientists are conservative, those who are not
can eventually correct any errors. Only time and further investigation will reveal the truth about these ancient
male mosquitoes and their feeding habits.
32．According to the passage, what is the main purpose of Dr. Azar’s research on amber specimens
A．To study the evolution of flowering plants.
B．To identify different species of mosquitoes.
C．To understand the relationship between plants and pollinator insects.
D．To examine the preservation process of insects in amber.
33．What does the underlined phrase “taken back” mean in Paragraph 2
A．Being removed. B．Being astonished.
C．Being reminded of something. D．Being brought to someplace.
34．What does the presence of claspers of the examined ancient mosquitoes imply
A．They belong to the oldest mosquitoes. B．They prove that the mosquitoes are males.
C．They help insects sip nectar from flowers. D．They show that mosquitoes prefer plants.
35．What is Dr. Greenwalt’s attitude towards the hypothesis proposed by Dr. Azar
A．He fully supports Dr. Azar’s findings and believes they are accurate.
B．He thinks it is too risky and lacks sufficient evidence.
C．He agrees to it but believes more research is needed.
D．He is uncertain and suggests waiting for other scientists’ opinions.
【答案】32．C 33．B 34．B 35．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了古生物学家通过对琥珀中昆虫的研究，发现古代雄性蚊子可能曾
也以血液为食，这一发现挑战了以往的认知，同时也引发了一些争议，需要进一步研究来证实。
32．细节理解题。根据第二段“Dr. Azar, a paleontologist (古生物学家) at the Nanjing Institute of Geology and
Palaeontology, studies amber with the aim of understanding how flowering plants and pollinator (传粉昆虫)
insects have evolved together.(南京地质古生物研究所的古生物学家阿扎尔博士研究琥珀，旨在了解开花植物
和传粉昆虫是如何共同进化的)”可知，阿扎尔博士研究琥珀标本的主要目的是了解开花植物和传粉昆虫之
间的关系。故选 C。
33．词句猜测题。根据第二段“However, while polishing one of the amber specimens to a thin slice that could be
examined under a microscope, he was taken back. He found that two of the specimens were the oldest known
fossils from the mosquito family, for their sharp, elongated mouth parts with tiny toothlike bristles (鬃毛).(然而，
当他把一个琥珀标本打磨成可以在显微镜下观察的薄片时，他 taken back。他发现其中两个标本是已知最
古老的蚊子化石，因为它们有着锋利、细长的口器和微小的齿状鬃毛)”可推知，发现了已知最古老的蚊子
化石，所以“taken back”意思是 “感到惊讶”。故选 B。
34．推理判断题。根据第三段“Further examination of the insects yielded another surprise. These two mosquitoes
also had pincerlike organs called claspers, which are used to hold onto females during mating.(对这些昆虫的进
一步检查又有了一个惊喜。这两只蚊子还有被称为抱握器的钳状器官，在交配时用来抓住雌性蚊子)”可推
知，检查的古代蚊子存在抱握器意味着它们是雄性蚊子。故选 B。
35．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Dale Greenwalt, also a paleontologist at the Smithsonian National Museum
of Natural History, finds the idea interesting but controversial. He suggests that further research is needed to
confirm if these insects were indeed mosquitoes and if their mouth parts were used for bloodsucking or other.(史
密森尼国家自然历史博物馆的古生物学家戴尔·格林沃尔特认为这个想法很有趣，但也有争议。他建议需
要进一步研究来证实这些昆虫是否确实是蚊子，以及它们的口器是否用于吸血或其他用途)”可知，格林沃
尔特博士认为阿扎尔博士的假设很有趣但有争议，需要进一步研究。故选 C。

There are so many definitions of wisdom. Simply put, wisdom is a mix of insight, commonsense,
experience, and results to sound judgement. It is not merely a desirable quality but an absolute necessity in a
world filled with chaos, controversy, and conflicts. 36 . It shines our way through darkness.
Growing up with fairy tales and fantasy movies, I always associated wisdom with Gandalf, Yoda, and
Albus Dumbledore. Although these characters have given every one of us tons of inspiration, wisdom actually lies
within ourselves. 37 And how
Embarking on new experiences is an avenue for acquiring wisdom. You will never grow from being in your
comfort zone, which is why you need to get out of it. Do change your routine and experience as much as what life
takes you! In fact, there are always several sides to a life story. To identify the truth, you need to be receptive to
different views. 38 . It is not emotion-based either. Train your mind to be a judgment-free space for ideas.
Open-mindedness opens new pathways to profound insights.
What if you are desperate for personal growth and improvement 39 The more time you spend with
them, the more transfer of knowledge there will be. Your tutors can be whoever is wiser than you. Yet prior to that,
engage in dialogue with them to find out why.
Rome was not built in a day. 40 . Instead it takes a span of your life and continuous effort to mature
in wisdom as you navigate life’s challenges.
A．Individuals need to bring it out.
B．It isn’t something you are born with.
C．Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens.
D．Developing wisdom is not a destination.
E．A shortcut to do that is to have wise people as your tutors.
F．Never base your perspective on the most popular opinions.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述智慧是我们前进道路上的指路明灯，并且探讨了如何才能获取智
慧。
36．根据上文“It is not merely a desirable quality but an absolute necessity in a world filled with chaos,
controversy, and conflicts.(在一个充满混乱、争议和冲突的世界里，它不仅是一种可取的品质，而且是绝对
必要的)”和下文“It shines our way through darkness.(它照亮我们穿越黑暗的道路)”可知，智慧可以为我们的
世界导航，照亮前方的道路，所以，空处应该是将智慧比作灯塔。G 项“为了在其中航行，智慧成为我们
的指路明灯”承上启下，符合语境。故选 G 项。
37．上文“Although these characters have given every one of us tons of inspiration, wisdom actually lies within
ourselves.(虽然这些角色给了我们每个人无数的灵感，但智慧其实在于我们自己)”和下文“And how (那怎么
做呢？)” 说明虽然童话故事和魔幻电影里的角色让我们感受到智慧，但获取和运用智慧在于我们自己。空
处应该进一步引出我们和智慧的关系。A 项“个人需要把它发挥出来”承上启下，其中 it 指代前文提到的
wisdom，且引出下文“个人怎样将智慧发挥出来”的内容。故选 A 项。
38．上文“To identify the truth, you need to be receptive to different views.(为了确定真相，你需要接受不同的
观点)”说明应该接受不同的观点。F 项“永远不要把你的观点建立在最流行的观点上”承接上文，说明不应
该只追随最流行的观点，并且和下文“It is not emotion-based either.(它也不是基于情感的)”相衔接，符合语
境。故选 F 项。
39．上文“What if you are desperate for personal growth and improvement (如果你渴望个人成长和进步呢？)”
提出假设，空处应该会对假设做出解答或说明。E 项“要做到这一点，一个捷径就是找有智慧的人做你的导
师”对上文的问题给出了回答，下文“The more time you spend with them, the more transfer of knowledge there
will be.(你和他们相处的时间越长，学到的知识就越多)”中的 them 呼应 wise people。故选 E 项。
40．根据上文“Rome was not built in a day.(罗马不是一天建成的)”和下文“It is important to acknowledge that
it takes a span of your life and continuous effort to mature in wisdom as you navigate life’s challenges.(重要的是
要认识到，当你面对生活的挑战时，你需要一段时间的生活和不断的努力来获得成熟的智慧)”可知，此段
讲获取智慧不是一蹴而就的，需要不断努力。D 项“发展智慧不是一个目的地”承上启下，和前文结构一致，
形成对比，引出下文。故选 D 项。

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One day, a good friend gave me a gift. It was a book filled with interesting and uplifting stories. I
remember I began reading it that very night. And I would read a story or two before going to bed each night.
One evening I read a story about hugging called “It Can’t Happen Here ” The opening quotation by
Virginia Satir said we need four hugs a day for survival, eight for maintenance (保持) and twelve hugs a day to
grow.
I read this story on a Tuesday. I knew it was Tuesday because on Wednesday I walked into my classroom
and declared that every Wednesday would be known as “Hugging Day.”I told my students everyone needs hugs to
live and grow.
I was already a hugger and had always greeted my students with a warm hug each morning. But after
reading the story in this new book, I decided that on Hugging Day everyone needed to make sure they got at least
twelve hugs. I wanted my students to grow. All hugs didn’t have to come from me, but I was ready, willing, and
able to give as many as needed.
My students lined up at my desk with questions and left with a hug. They hugged me before and after lunch.
They hugged me when they came to school in the morning and when they left for home in the afternoon. And
perhaps best of all, the children in my classroom hugged each other.
Every Wednesday, my students counted their hugs to make sure they were getting their fair share. I
continued the practice for several years. Through the years, I hugged all kinds of kids — those who were untidy
and those who were clean, children who were gifted academically and others whose gifts lay elsewhere. Among
them, Nicole, one of my students, stood out for her enthusiasm about Hugging Day. She was a shy girl who rarely
spoke up in class, but on Hugging Day, she would always be the first to line up to hug me. I could see how much a
hug meant to her.

【答案】参考作文
One Wednesday afternoon, I was cleaning up my classroom. I needed to get everything ready for the next
day. Just as I was about to leave, a soft voice called into the empty classroom, “May I come in ” I looked up to
see a girl standing in the doorway. It was Nicole. She stood there with her arms wrapped tightly around herself, as
if she was trying to hold back her feelings. She looked up at me with a mixture of hope and sadness. Obviously,
she was trying hard not to cry. “Nicole, what’s wrong ” I said gently, inviting her to come in.
Nicole fell into my arms and began to sob. Tears streamed down her cheeks when I hugged her tightly. We
sat down in the chairs, and she began to pour out her heart. She told me about the challenges she was facing —
peer pressure, family issues, and the overwhelming stress of growing up. We talked, we shared, and we left that
room to go our separate ways. But I learned something new that day. Sometimes it doesn’t take four hugs to
survive. Sometimes, it just takes one.
